The guys and I have been playing this time-killing game for a few weeks now. It's an application on Facebook.com. All you do is plant crops so that you could earn money. Once you get the money, you can buy things like a farm animal, decorations, trees, etc. You could even extend the size of your farm. It's a simple game that we all like to play. From my research, this game was inspired by another game called "Farmtown." Another fun thing about Farmville is that you could visit your friends' farms and see what they got goin' on, lol. I'm sure our interest in this game will end in another month or so but until then, we're enjoying it now. Hahaha!Friday, July 31, 2009

Farewell, Jeff :)
Garlic Festival @ Gilroy


Yesterday a bunch of us went to the Garlic Festival at Gilroy. $12 Admission for adults and $6 for kids. We were pretty much stuck in traffic on our way there for two hours, which was horrible. Then when we arrived, the place was so packed! Since we all took seperate cars, we all arrived at the festival at different times... majority of the time, I believe, we were trying to unite everyone together... But it was hard. As much as we wanted to, Brian and I didn't try anything garlic. I wanted to try the garlic ice cream, garlic fries, garlic chicken, etc... but seeing more and more lines after being stuck in traffic was discouraging. The weather was dry and hot -- it was just an uncomfortable environment. I'm not a fan of dry, hot, crowded places... As always, I tried to make the whole experience worthwhile. I appreciated live country music with loved ones while sitting under the tree. I also welcomed the cool breeze under the shade while eating frozen lemonade :)

Congratulations, Brian!
Brian is almost done with his Pharmacy Technician program at Unitek... He started in February, and now I'm guessing he has 3 more months to go. Almost everyday he's studying new medicines and their uses. He has 2 or 3 quizzes/tests every week. So yesterday he came home happy because he passed his up-front examination and upon completion, he obtained his Certification in Chemotherapy!! And besides that, a few weeks ago he was offered an externship at Stanford Hospital... my mom works there, too! I'm happy/excited/thankful/smiley for him! He's doing what he needs to do -- and doing well at it :)
Good luck to Sheryll today! She's doing her examination too (And congratulations in advance, Sheryll! I believe in you!!)
Next stop: CERTIFIED PHARMACY TECHNICIANS! :)

Long, Fun Weekend :)
Friday, July 17th - I opened the store. Got off around 6:00pm. Went to Brian's house to chill until poker night at Jerome's house. Around 10pm, we all met up... I tried not to rush or go all-in because I wanted to stay in the game for as long as I could. Jerome told me earlier at work that "You either have the cards, or you don't." So I tried to keep that in mind the whole time. I also tried some bluffing techniques on them which worked because I ended up winning the whole thing. It was Jerome, me, and John as the final three.... lol! Then Jerome killed John... then I killed Jerome :] it was a fun(ny) night....
Saturday, July 18th - After winning from last night's poker tournament at Jerome's house, I woke up at 6:30am to hike up Mission Peak again. It was me, Brian, John, my dad, Jerome, Sean, and Jenny. Buuut maaaan, my legs were so sore! We didn't go up to the top, I went to the 3rd bench with Jerome and John while Sean, Jenny, my dad, and Brian went up to the 4th bench. The 4th bench is the last bench before you head up to the peak... so it's still very high up there. I think Mission Peak is a really good workout because one, it has major incline and two, my whole body is working and sweating. Afterwards, we showered and got ready... around 12:00pm we headed over to Sweet Tomatoes in Santa Clara for lunch. At 2:00pm, I went to work... I took it easy at work... conserving my energy since I had to close the store with Luis. Brian picked me up from work at around 9:30pm, and we ate at Jack in the Box. Once we went back to his house, I knocked out completely.... I wanted to play with Brian but everytime I closed my eyes for just two seconds I'd just fall straight asleep.





Sunday, July 19th - I woke up and went to church because my mom told me they were doing a head-count. I almost fell asleep during the lesson but I tried pinching my hands as hard as I can to stay awake. Mayumi wore dirty green plaid flats with her floral dress but then, that's what happens when we let Mayumi dress herself up. Funnny. Today I also wore a sleeveless top to church. It was no "sphagetti strap" or anything... and none of the deconesses stopped me to tell me it's wrong... so I guess it was ok? LOL. Then my dad, John, Myooms, and I went to Liou's Restaurant near Golfland for lunch. Then at 2pm, I went back to my house to find that Ka Ehmir took his couches back from our living room. So I took the couches in my room back to the living room with the help of my brother. Since there was extra space in my room, I reorganized, cleaned, dusted, vacuumed, and mopped. AND I did laundry while I cleaned. I felt so productive :) Then I went to Valleyfair with Brian and John to return the quad eyeshadow that I bought last week...I felt that the colors weren't "me" because they were too girlie. It was just a relaxing day.
This weekend I'm looking forward to going to the Garlic Festival in Gilroy. My manager gave me and Jerome that day off just so we can go. I'm excited because a lot of us are going! And on top of that, I get paid this week :) There are these new booties that arrived at our store that I sooooo badly want!!
